CEO Posts Point to MGA Expansion in Australia

MGA Entertainment Inc. appears to be expanding into Australia, according to multiple LinkedIn posts by Chief Executive Isaac Larian.

“We will open MGA Australia to sell and market direct starting Feb 2019,” Larian wrote in a post.

He added that the Van Nuys toy manufacturer is looking to hire additional “sales, marketing, analyst, supply chain, operation, IT and HR” employees to join the Australian team.

Sapienza Salerno, who according to her LinkedIn page was previously a sales consultant for Australian real estate firm Independent Property Group, will join as managing director and be based in Sydney.

“Thank you, I'm very excited to be joining the MGA Team,” Salerno replied in a comment under Larian’s post.

It’s unclear what type of office or facility MGA plans to open. A representative for MGA was not immediately available to comment.
